Agnes found herself walking through the familiar paths of the village, her heart heavy with the weight of the decisions she had to make. She had made up her mind, and she knew that the conversation she was about to have with Baba Tunde would seal her fate.Baba Tunde was in his hut, tending to the herbs and artifacts that adorned the shelves. As Agnes entered, he looked up and smiled warmly. “Ah, Agnes, my child. What brings you here today?”Agnes returned his smile, though it was tinged with sadness. “Baba Tunde, I need to talk to you about something important.”Baba Tunde motioned for her to sit, his expression growing serious. “Of course, my dear. You know you can always speak freely with me.”Agnes took a deep breath, her fingers nervously twining together. “It’s about my son. I’ve been thinking about a name for him.”Baba Tunde’s eyes twinkled with curiosity. “A name? That’s a wonderful step, Agnes.”Agnes nodded, her voice soft but determined. “Yes. I’ve decided to name him Maxi

Lysandra entered the jail cell, her confident smirk unsettling.“Well, well, well. If it isn’t the brave generals who used to serve Constantine,” she purred.General Marcus narrowed his eyes. “What do you want, Lysandra?”Leaning against the cell bars, Lysandra spoke with a honeyed tone. “Just a little chat, my dear generals. You see, I’ve taken over now. And I think it’s in your best interest to pledge your loyalty to me.”General Callahan crossed her arms, unimpressed. “Loyalty to you? You’ve got to be kidding.”A laugh escaped Lysandra’s lips as she studied them. “Oh, I assure you, I’m not joking. I have plans for this city, and I could use your expertise, your connections.”General Marcus shook his head with a resolute look. “We won’t work for you. We’ve seen enough of power-hungry sorcerers like you.”Lysandra’s smirk didn’t waver. “Well, that’s a shame. I was hoping for a more cooperative response.”General Callahan couldn’t help but mock. “Sorry to disappoint you.”Lysandra lea

But I also recognize the threats that surround us.”The tension in the air was palpable, and the crowd leaned in, hanging on her every word.“We are faced with an abomination, a force that seeks to disrupt our harmony, to bring chaos to our world,” Lysandra declared. “I assure you, I will not rest until this threat is eradicated, until peace is restored.”The c

The air was thick with anticipation.Lysandra’s voice cut through the silence, “Gentlemen, our pursuit of Agnes and the child may have been hampered, but our determination must remain unwavering.”Allistair nodded, his expression serious. “Agnes may have escaped for now, but we cannot allow her to evade us forever.”Another official chimed in, “We have the resources, the manpower, and your leadership, Lysandra. We will not fail in our mission.”Lysandra’s eyes flickered with a steely resolve. “Constantine may be gone, but her legacy of chaos and defiance lives on. We cannot allow that to stop.”Allistair leaned forward, his voice unwavering, “We stand united in this endeavor, Lysandra. You have my full support.”Lysandra’s lips curved into a dangerous smile. “Agnes thinks she has escape, that she can hide from her fate. But we

The distant waves of the Persian Gulf lapped against the shore as Freya stood at the water’s edge, clutching the vessel that held the ashes of her beloved Vaemond. With a deep breath, she released the vessel into the sea, watching as it slowly sank beneath the surface.As the vessel disappeared into the depths, a shimmering projection of Vaemond materialized before her, his form ethereal and filled with a soft, warm light. Freya’s breath caught in her throat as tears welled in her eyes, a bittersweet mixture of sorrow and longing coursing through her.“Freya,” Vaemond’s projected image spoke, his voice carrying a gentle and reassuring tone.“Vaemond,” Freya whispered, her voice choked with emotion.

Agnes’s heart raced as she walked through the field, the warm breeze brushing against her skin. The baby’s laughter echoed in the air as she gently rocked the basket in her arms.Suddenly, her grip faltered, and the basket slipped from her hands. Agnes’s eyes widened in horror as a monstrous python appeared out of nowhere, its massive coils wrapping around the basket and her precious child.“Maximus!!” Agnes’s scream tore through the air, a mixture of fear and desperation in her voice.The python’s grip tightened, and Agnes felt a surge of panic. She tried to reach for her baby, but the snake’s coils were too strong, constricting around the basket as if in a vice.“No! Let him go!” Agnes’s voice trembled as tears welled up in her eyes. She struggled against the python’s hold, her heart pounding in her chest.And then, as quickly as it had appeared, the python and the basket vanished, leaving Agnes standing alone in the field, her breath ragged and her eyes wide with terror.Agnes’s ha

The council chamber was in a state of urgency, the air thick with tension as the emergency bells echoed through the room. Lysandra stood at the head of the table, her expression composed as she listened to the reports pouring in. One council member’s voice rose above the rest, his tone accusatory. “Lysandra, how did this happen? How did Freya manage to escape?”Lysandra’s gaze met his, her voice steady. “I received word that Freya attempted to escape, but she was intercepted by one of my trusted guards. Unfortunately, the guard was unable to retrieve her body.”The council members exchanged concerned glances, their disbelief evident. “And the guard’s name?” another council member inquired.Lysandra opened her mouth to speak, ready to say “Liam,” the name of the guard she had instructed to eliminate Freya. But before she could utter a word, another council member cut in.“And one of the guards, Liam. I’m afraid he’s dead as well,” the council member said, a hint of grim satisfaction i

What is it that you require?” Lysandra’s lips curved into a calculated smile. “I want you to accompany Freya on her journey out of the city.” The guard’s eyebrows lifted in surprise. “But

The cell was dimly lit, the cold stone walls casting shadows that danced around the room. Freya sat on the floor, her expression a mix of defiance and resignation, as she awaited the inevitable.

A way out of this cell and a chance at freedom.”Freya’s eyebrows furrowed in suspicion. “And what’s the catch?”Lysandra paced slowly, her gaze fixed on Freya. “I’ll be blunt,” she began. “The council is calling for your execution. They’re hungry for retribution for your betrayal.”Freya’s eyes flickered with a mix of anger and resignation. “So, what, you’re here to gloat?”Lysandra’s expression remaine

Lysandra paced back and forth in her private chamber, her frustration mounting with each failed attempt at casting the locator spell.

Lysandra, the self-proclaimed ultimate sorcerer, stood before her, her presence commanding attention.“Freya,” Lysandra greeted with a twisted smile. “How delightful to see you again.”Freya’s lips pressed into a thin line, her eyes narrowing as she met Lysandra’s gaze. “Save the pleasantries, Lysandra. I’m not here to engage in a friendly chat.”Lysandra chuckled, a sound that held a hint of amusement. “Oh, I’m well aware of that, dear. But perhaps you’ll change your tune once you hear what I have to say.”Freya rolled her eyes, her tone dripping with sarcasm. “I highly doubt it.”Lysandra took a step closer, her eyes boring into Freya’s with a mix of curiosity and intrigue. “Yo
